However, people should not think that lockdown has been lifted. Reiterating the importance of social distancing, Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray said today, “No one should think that lockdown has been lifted.”

The state government would take strict action against those violating lockdown norms. “I’ve heard that some people are treating relaxations as lifting of lockdown. If they continue to behave like this we will take strict measures,” added Thackeray.

The state government has decided to seal borders of districts to avoid the spread of the virus. Industries in ‘green zone’ and ‘orange zones’ have started production. Green zones are those areas where no coronavirus cases had been diagnosed. Orange zones have reported few coronavirus cases since the outbreak.

Maharashtra had several districts which recorded zero coronavirus cases.

The measures being relaxed are geared towards the agricultural sector — farming, fisheries and plantations — which provide a lifeline for thousands of farmers across the country.

“We have given permission only for industries in the essential sector and the transport of essentials,” Thackeray said .

“As we don’t run our economy now, we will be in financial crisis after we come out of coronavirus crisis,” Thackeray added.

With over 4,000 cases, Maharashtra has witnessed the highest number number of coronavirus cases in the country. The death toll in the state has increased to over 223. Mumbai, the financial capital of India, saw over 1,000 COVID-19 cases since the outbreak.

The COVID-19 situation is “especially serious” in Mumbai, Pune, Indore, Jaipur, Kolkata and a few other places in West Bengal, and violation of lockdown measures risk the spread of the novel coronavirus, the Centre said.
